Anybody heard the TAD 805SD speakers?

Richmon,

How are your feelings holding out on the TAD's??

TelescopeTrade - My satisfaction remains high. They replaced a 10 year old pair of JBL bookshelfs for a bedroom system, mostly for playing classical FM music. They're a Beamon leap improvement over the JBL's in every way. Most music is in the midrange and that's where these shine.
I've been postponeing some main system upgrades (getting my connie J upgraded to 'A' status and having the speaker cables reterminated due to deep groves on the spades) but hesitated to be without my sonic escape machine. Now, I know the TAD's will keep my toes tapping meanwhile.

Rickmon,

Well, I pulled the trigger on a pair today. We'll
see what happens when they get here.
Will run them on tubes.

Hmmm... just a little suspicious after following the audioreview link on TAD's site where one "Randall Johnson" (a pen name, perhaps?) gives a lengthy and glowing review of these speakers - It reads much like the ad copy on the site... plus lines like "I really can’t tell you how much I love this pair! Just Buy them!" and "The purchase price is too low - hard to compare. Keep in mind the suggested list price of $1899 when shopping." Maybe just me, but something seems fishy - we've all seen this before where a vendor creates his own positive buzz to promote sales... just my 2 cents.

Since having posted my earlier comment, I've checked out reviews of other Bizzy Bee products by A'gon members (and elsewhere) to find it seems there's a loyal following due to a very good quality product being offered at a very fair price. Perhaps the "Randall Johnson" review is just harmless free advertising, but is it really needed? The products obviously speak for themselves - I may even make a purchase at some point - With the in-home trial & return policy, those prices sure are tempting...
